Sean.....I just found out...how did I miss this ???? I am heartbroken You were a great friend and I knew if I ever needed someone to talk to you would have been there for me.....I still remember meeting you while you were coaching my son at SYF Cuyahoga Falls....3 years later we realized we dated back in 1991! Your kids were always number one with you..... You were a wonderful father!!!!! I am in shock and I literally fell down when I read the article....You were such a sweet soul....my thoughts are with Sam and Tim....I just cant believe it...I even went to your house to see if anyone was there to talk to....your truck is sitting there...I hope I told you at some point what a good guy and friend you were

Sean. A good friend, a wonderful father. I will miss that big smile of yours. I remember so many fun times when we were in high school at Woodridge. The moment I remember the most though was one of the last days of school and you were sitting by the door to go outside in the cafeteria and as I walked by you ...there was that big ole' smile. Saying "see ya". So Sean, I will see ya again someday. See you again.....Rest in peace friend

I'm still trying to figure out why I'm so distraught about a guy I've only known for about 5yrs; but after talking to and reading what your friends and family have to say, it's because simply put...I loved being able to call you,MY FRIEND! You always made me feel welcome wherever we were, and always made me smile when I didn't feel like it. I always felt better after talking to or seeing you, and that was just the man you were, and I thank you for that! Everyone understood your dedication to your sons Timmy and Sammy, and will continue to make sure they are taken care of. My love and condolences to your mom,dad and the rest of your family. Thanks for making my world alot brighter, just wish I could have known you sooner and kept you here with us longer! Love you, Bro! May you rest in peace. roger

In all the universe, in all time, you are the only you.
Never have molecules come together exactly like you,
never again will your footsteps be repeated upon this earth.
Your strength is the strength someone can count on,
your life is the life that can make a difference.
